The video and concept was put together by General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis) who ends the video with a message to voters,“We’re daytime actors for democracy. And we’re turning the page with our vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.” As soap fans know, Grahn is a political and social advocate who has been in support of VP Harris, and often uses her platform on X to voice her political views.

LOL a bunch of nobodys
That’s hysterical coming from someone supporting a game show host
like the Tim walz wannabe, ha ha.
I don’t understand. From your “name” here it looks like you’re a Kamala fan. So are these actors that you’re calling nobody’s. Unless I misunderstood and the name you chose “Tim Walz” was a joke?
Go study your lines, Nancy. I don’t need to know who you vote for.
Her lines are memorized, so she’s got spare time, Go Harris!
I know really
Awesome! Good for them! I have never been prouder of daytime actors!
Turning the page on the hate, chaos, vulgarity, incompetence, stupidity, and criminality of the convicted felon (who’s awaiting sentencing BTW) and convicted sexual assaulter, is vitally important for our country. I applaud the actors, other entertainers, former Trump cabinet members/staff/officials, military chiefs, coalition of Republicans, as well as regular citizens who, even if they might disagree with Harris on some (or even most) policies, realize the danger of another Trump presidency and lend their voices to this joyous movement of turning the page!
Couldn’t have said it better! How anyone with a brain and a HEART could support such a vile man is beyond me.
I live in Saskatchewan Canada so obviously I do not get a vote but up here we follow US politics very closely unlike Americans who don’t follow us at all!!
Only thing that I am dissapointed with about this video is that GH has a cast of roughly 35 actors and only a fraction of them appear in this video.I hope that isn’t saying anything.
Thank you, Greg! I agree with your great points! Thank you for your support and interest in US politics. PS: I have many relatives and friends in Canada!
I can’t believe that all you people from GH are so detached from the US working middle class. Do you not remember the horrible last 4 year with VP Kamala who is so out of touch with reality. Illegal immigrants killing our children and 425,000 missing children, who have been trafficated. High inflation, high prices, and men playing in woman’s sports. I am ashamed to believe all of you live in a detached world of glamor and tv make believe , wake up!!! Only Trump can make America Great Again!!!
America is still great. We’re not going back.
This is a still free country and actors are citizens so go sit on a cactus, Karen.
We are NOT going back!
#Harris/Walz
How’s the weather in Vladivostok today, “Paula”?
Amen Paula
Yes, Paula, so true!
I as a Canadian am absolutely horrified that Trump was voted in! I am so disappointed in the majority of Americans that allowed such an autracity to happen.
All I can say is that I am so proud to be a Canadian!!
Please Please Please, Stop with the Hate towards soap stars.
I wish I did not have to know the political beliefs of anyone soap star or musician that I love. Why can’t we keep that out of it? Makes me sick to see these idiots who obviously are so set for life & have no real concept of what is actually at stake. God, forget your hatred of Donald Trump & see reason! We cannot afford 4 more years of Biden’s non action.
And Kameltoe’s idiocy. “I wouldn’t do anything differently than Biden”. Nuff said
Try making your point like an adult without resorting to petty name calling.
Extremely foolish. I admire the soap stars that sat this out, understanding that, in such a polarized and divided country, there’s little to be gained by alienating half of their fan base!
And yet Trump doesn’t mind offending more than half the country and anyone else who doesn’t bend the knee. And people vote for that moral bankruptcy.
I didn’t vote for him as much as I voted against the other side. If you want to look for moral bankruptcy, there’s plenty of that in the Democrat Party.
In the progressives; yes.
I figured Grahan was behind this stupid idea! Why cant the actors just entertain us and keep their political views to themselves! It ruins the good efforts they put on their show. At my job, we are NOT allowed to talk about politics. Its more volatile than ever. Kamala would be a horrible president. She cannot put two sentences together. She has not shared any of her policies. She is an empty vessel. She only wants to rub shoulders with celebrities. The middle class voters dont even care about celebrities! They are fake and delusional. They dont go off and fight in wars or try and budget their take home pay to buy groceries, pay their mortgage, put food on the table and keep the lights on! Most of us may never meet a famous person. We may have a chance to meet a soap star at an event. It is highly unlikely we would be able to meet Tom Hanks or Eddie Murphy. Those celebrities are untouchable. A chance to meet daytime royalty is so cool and means thew world to us. We have known these characters for so long and now we get to talk to them. No, not if they are going to show their political hand and join the Grahan movement. Nancy is miserable. She wants everyone around her to be miserable to. How dare she put these fine actors on the spot and put a black mark next to each of our beloved heroes names! Kamala knows nothing about world politics and other countries think she is a joke! Be careful what you wish for, we need a strong leader to make our country respectable and capable. Shoving a hack like Kamala our ways is not only a loss for your party, it also affects the reputation of a women and a women of color.
She is miserable she looks miserable always
First of all, Harris is the first major party nominee to have worked in all 3 branches of government – so yes, she is qualified.
Nobody was holding a gun to any of the daytime performers heads to participate in this video. They are public figures and may express their opinions outside of work however they choose to- freedom of speech.
Since when Trump the great orator? And what specific policies has he been discussing? He has “a concept of a plan” for healthcare and let’s count how many infrastructure weeks came and went.
As for the middle class, I bet Kamala knows how much a half gallon of milk costs.
Saying that Kamala hasn’t shared any policy ideas is a lie. Which is not surprising, lies and demeaning, insulting attacks is all the right has. She has shared detailed plans on lowering taxes, price gouging, lowering costs, housing, lowering the cost of prescription medication, improving healthcare/Medicare, the immigration issue at the border, and many other things. She’s talked about these things on literally a daily basis over the past 3 months. She has shared many more details on her plans compared to the 34-time convicted felon and rapist.
Not only that, to say that a woman that reached the level of District Attorney, Attorney General, Senator and Vice President can’t put two sentences together is insulting and so beneath any normal human discourse. While your guy stands up there forgetting what state he’s in, babbling about Hannibal Lecter, Arnold Palmer’s penis size, talking about his golden toilets, calling the United States a garbage can, referring to Kamala as a bitch. Give me a break. How embarrassing to support such a vile, disgusting pig.
Time to put the garbage in the trash can of history where it belongs, once and for all.
You’ll hear Kamala put more than two sentences together at her victory speech tonight. We’re not going back!
thanks Dan!!
Trump has to win so that nut job Bette Midler will drink bleach I think that’s what the crazy said. Bottom line I hope we stay strong but this has been going on for years I don’t want a one world order I want America to be strong and everybody prosper
No one will miss her
If I was their advisor I would say no but basically I don’t care what they say it is their right I just get upset that we don’t have any rights to say our peace but hey it is what is is no anger here . I gave up on daytime a long time ago but stupid is what they are you are offending some people better to keep silent
So let me get this straight, you get to say all of that and the actors can’t say anything?? They’re actors, human beings, real people with thoughts and opinions like you and I. They may be beloved heroes in your mind but the reality is they are also tax paying US citizens. These are not children and no one is putting them on the spot nor are they being made to do anything they don’t want to do. Respect that not everyone shares your world view. It does not make a person out of touch if they don’t think like you or share your life experiences.
I always have to laugh my pointy tailed ass off at the mortals who say celebrities should shut up about politics… after they voted for Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump.
I am very disappointed with all these stars that they have choose to vote with the dark side the side of evil and tyrant
Hahahahahahahaha Nancy and her SOAP ‘STARS’ FOR DEMOCRACY !!! GOD BLESS AMERICA MY HOME SWEET HOME!!!
The last 44 years of your country’s history is 666% proof that my Former Employer doesn’t give a cherub’s pink little ass about America.
Hahahahahahahahaha
He was in for four years did he ever try to take your rights away? Did he ever put our people in wars ? Did he ever do mandates in taking a virus shot that did not protect you ? So all the lies you have been told I don’t care but in real sick if wealthy people telling me what to do . Are you? I’m glad he is back in White House I hope he stops the nonsense and I don’t have to like everything he says I like what he does! When you have a loved one lost because a man walked across our border with out any knowledge of who they are and they leave them in a river after they have been raped and etc then talk to us ok
Preach, sister! 🙂
Nancy and friends:
The election is over.
Your side lost.
Thank you

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).
On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..
In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”
GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW
So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!
FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD
As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”
Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.
So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL
Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.
The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.
In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”
So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
